The new story continues Yang Cai's experience. Everyone feels a little uneasy, but now they have no energy left to investigate this ghost that may appear in Gengwu City. It was already Bai Li's second day, and Lu Ning didn't want to have a long night and many dreams.
The materials brought back by Chen Hang and others were given top priority. The videos and audios were selected and matched, and three groups of people who should be able to cope with it were identified. The first group of them was around eleven o'clock in the evening, and some of them could be vaguely recognized as the group of Taoist priests that Lu Ning met when eating before. These people seemed to have sobered up and had a drink before coming over, and their low-pitched exchanges were still somewhat coherent. They first looked at the body that died in the car accident today, and then each took out some Taoist tools and did something in the morgue, but it was too dark to see the details. The men stayed for about thirty minutes and then left.
There were only three people in the second group. His face was covered with a mask and a medical hat, but he was definitely not a doctor. Their identities are almost revealed in the slightly blurry audio conversations.
"The dead man should meet the requirements."
"I didn't expect that something almost went wrong on the first day. Fortunately, one person died as expected. Otherwise, wouldn't Bai Li have failed on the first day?"
"The other one...we can rob the corpse they made."
"It's too late. Our 'coffin' is not that convenient. If it is not necessary, there is no need for us to argue. The other party is also determined to kill."
"Hmph...but if twenty people died in ten days in such a small place, wouldn't it attract attention? If the short-term death rate soared, the leaders would definitely come over to take a look at the situation."
"Then it depends on who is smarter. Okay, once the coffin is confirmed to be sealed, we will leave immediately. It would not be good if we are discovered by the hospital night patrol."
"What are you afraid of? There are people arranged by me in the hospital."
One person chuckled, but the three of them checked it out and left quickly, around one to ten in the morning.
The last group of people appeared around three o'clock, and it was not even sure whether this group was human.
They just have human outlines, but just looking at the darker figures in the darkness makes people feel a little creepy. Many of these "people" bodies are twitching slightly, as if they are suppressing and enduring something. There is only one He looked fine and reached out to lift the white sheet covering the body.
In the economy, there are only some obvious heavy breathing sounds, which is very strange.
After about three minutes, the "person" who opened the list put it down, turned around and picked up a nail stick that he had brought over, raised it to the corpse's head and smashed it down hard, causing the flesh and blood to break and the bones to break. It rang. There was no plasma spewing out of the cryogenically preserved corpse, but many things could still be seen splashing out from the corpse in the dark. If there was light, the scene would be very bloody.
After smashing it, the "person" turned around and grabbed the nearest trembling "person", raised his palm, and chopped off its head and part of its shoulders with a knife, and then carefully placed it next to the corpse on the hospital bed. Then he took out the needle and thread from his pocket and sewed twice simply and roughly. Finally, it clapped its hands. As if they had received some signal, the trembling "people" swarmed forward and pulled over the headless corpses on the ground and the fragments smashed out by the nail sticks. A terrifying chewing sound was heard, but In a few minutes, the meal was over. These people left satisfied.
Yan Zidan and Qian Yipeng turned pale when they saw this image for the first time. Although they were not intimidated after going through some things, they still couldn't accept such a situation.
"The corpse has been replaced with a head? What's the purpose of this? These people are not human, but if they are ghosts, why do they do this?" Qi Mei was still not surprised, and even asked questions.
"The first group are the Taoist priests who came here for Bai Li's treasure, the second group are the murderers who held Bai Li to check the condition of the body, then the third group... I guess they are the oriole behind." Lu Ning said softly He nodded his chin and said thoughtfully, "The only one in the third batch who looks more like a human is the guy who smashed the corpse with a nail stick, or at least a sane ghost. I'll make a copy of the video. Now we need to compare the last two Verify the identity of the group of people.”
"How to verify?" Tang Haiyao asked.
"News at 3:30," Lu Ning replied.
She has never actually used this to publish news. The scene that Chen Hang brought back now is basically a scene of a group of ghosts dismembering corpses. There is no doubt that it satisfies the need for news at 3:30. If the people or ghosts behind this APP are really capable, then Don't miss it.
After uploading the video for review, Lu Ning didn't just rely on this thing. She asked Zhou Shilan for the bugs of the recording and video cameras, and said to Jin Yuntai and Lu Ping: "Two Taoist Priests, if the scene of ghosts last night happened, there should be some Yin Qi left on them. Taoist Priest Song You’re not good at tracking, but you two should be able to find some clues from it.”
"This is what I mean." Jin Yuntai said seriously. If he had regarded Bai Li as something that did not have to be eliminated before, then seeing the third group of ghosts now is a serious problem. Ghosts who abide by the rules can still live in peace within a certain limit, but this group of ghosts is obviously unruly.
Both of them are experts. There were so many ghosts passing by the morgue last night, and the yin energy left behind was not a speck, and it was easy to see some traces. But the two of them discussed in low voices, and their expressions became more and more solemn.
Lu Ning was using other things to adjust the picture definition, trying to find some details from the black mass. Although the difficulty was indeed not small, she still found some clues.
For example, the trembling ghosts among the third batch of ghosts don't seem to be wearing clothes but something like rough hair. The "man" with the nail stick is obviously wearing a coat with a cloth texture, and there is even an outline like an ornament on his head. However, none of them can be seen wearing masks from the side like the second group of people.
While she was checking the details frame by frame, Zhou Shilan suddenly received a call. After chatting beside her in a low voice, she said to everyone, "It's Zhang Xinqing!"
"Is she finally willing to talk to us?" Lu Ning raised her head, "Or does she just have something to tell us?"
"I'm not blaming anyone, Li Wenyue. At least thanks to you, I temporarily survived that fatal circus." Zhang Xinqing's voice came from the microphone. Zhou Shilan hurriedly changed to speakerphone and said: "We are all worried about you! Everyone is in danger now, and we don't want to hear any bad news!"
"There will always be bad news." Zhang Xinqing sighed, "Especially when some people realize the danger a little later than us, which is just a little behind."
"What do you know?" Lu Ning asked.
"Yang Cai entered the hospital, and now he is also in danger in the hospital. After I saw tonight's Solitaire, I immediately tried to check the classmates who had appeared in Solitaire, as well as the classmates who had written Solitaire. Li Wenyue , Tang Haiyao, you two are very lucky."
"What's wrong with everyone else?" Lu Ning also felt that chatting in the group was becoming less and less frequent, and so far no one had said in the group that he had encountered a ghost.
"Lu Jiangyang's house is just like at home. The phone can't be reached and there is no one. Qi Xugang's situation is quite normal. He seems not to have noticed anything like ghosts at all. On the contrary, Shi Danong can't be contacted now. He seems to have really responded. Deng Changjun and Deng Changli seemed to have had a very fierce quarrel. When I asked about it, Deng Changli cried to me and said that Deng Changjun really hit her for the first time, but Deng Changjun could not be contacted. How credible it is is unclear. In the end... something happened to Min Feng."
"What? Why didn't we hear about it?" Chen Hang screamed.
"When something happened to her, her family would not notify us classmates...but I found the news based on the address of Min Feng's home and confirmed the situation from the local news agency. Min Feng jumped out of the kitchen window at home. Her home was five Lou, died on the spot.”
The atmosphere was more solemn than ever.
"This may be a sign that the death-free medal for those of us who write Solitaire may have expired." Zhang Xinqing whispered, "And Ye Qin came to Mi City. I find it strange that she didn't tell anyone about it. Is that so? I asked the circus clown to visit her twice. She is indeed conducting a purposeful investigation and is not just traveling to relax."
"She...maybe she also encountered a ghost? Because she was afraid...No, it's hard to explain." Yan Zidan was a little confused in the middle of the sentence.
"If it's because of fear, the first reaction should be to ask for help, whether it's a parent or a friend, even a monk or a Taoist priest, instead of investigating by yourself. No, I'm not even sure if she is really investigating. , her actions...I can't judge."
"Then Ye Qin may be a detective or a murderer." Lu Ning said.
"Well, I don't rule out this possibility. I'm afraid she has already taken action. Our progress is slightly faster. Ye Qin only came here to investigate based on the previous part of Secret City. The problem is... Now there is Circus and I in Secret City. Tuan, whether she is a detective or a murderer, I am always on the opposite side of her."
Lu Ning smiled: "It sounds like you have mastered the circus?"
"Yes, but I haven't figured out exactly how each ghost drives him."
"Avoid her, no matter who she is, as long as you avoid Ye Qin. Listen Zhang Xinqing, the circus can conduct tours. You should set the location for tomorrow's tour now and use your authority as the leader. "
"Huh? Where?"
"Of course it's here in Zaoyuanzhuang. I was going to do something big tomorrow. If there was a poker circus, it would probably be a big surprise for that guy who hides his head and shows his tail." Lu Ning raised the corner of her lips, "Zhang Xinqing, do you want to Join us?"
"There's no need to meet up. The Taoist priests probably don't want to see me, a tough guy." Zhang Xinqing refused, "But I can cooperate with you. What do you want me to do?"
"Tomorrow at seven o'clock in the evening, we will tour to the old garden. You can let the members attack the ghosts they see. You can control them yourself. The circus has just eaten and there is no need to eat people. No one can die here."
"Okay, but what's your plan?"
"Tomorrow I will start to gather the ghosts from Zaoyuanzhuang. We all have strong Yin energy and are perfect candidates to attract ghosts, especially me. Of course, if the Taoist priest is next to me, it will cover my smell, so tomorrow The Taoist Master won’t act with me.”
Lu Ping suddenly raised his head: "You want to take risks? No!"
"Listen to me, Taoist priest, I'm not worried about those little ghosts now. I will wait next to the city center park. Once something happens, I will go directly in and give orders. The two ghosts who belong to Shirakami there will help me get rid of the ghosts. The direction with the weakest atmosphere opens a breakthrough gap.”
"You want to rely on those two ghosts to break through the siege? Can you catch up?" Qi Mei frowned, "If the ghosts speed up, they will be very fast. How can you catch up with your mortal body?"
"There is no need to catch up. I specially asked the Six Eyes of Eyes to help me cover the ears and eyes of the Taoist priests, just to screen out these interference options. What they cannot reach must be the person hidden in this Zaoyuan Manor. From then on The only time he committed a crime before our eyes, we can actually infer a little bit of his motives."
Since it is not a ghost that will eat the entire body of the Dharmakaya ghost, this person must have another purpose. He sent a piece of his tongue to Ms. Du. What was his purpose? It was obvious that he wanted to scare her and make her leave Zaoyuanzhuang. At worst, she would panic.
And the tongue-splitting lotus flower is naturally unlikely to end well. In other words, this person's target is both a human and a ghost. Ms. Du lost her voice after her last contact with Qi Mei. People like Lu Ning, who thinks the worst of everything, naturally directly define her as dead. There is no need to deny that ghosts don't care about killing people. Then the person who really attacked Ms. Du was the person who scared her to leave.
They were so deliberate and went to great lengths to scare people away and then intercept and kill them in the middle of the road. If Guan Liulu hadn't actually talked to them, there might have been a misunderstanding between the two parties. This matter can be considered concealed. From Lu Ning's point of view, since this person can kill even the tongue-splitting lotus flower, it wouldn't be too difficult to directly kill Ms. Du and fake the scene or something, so there must be another plan. Attacking the local Dharmakaya ghosts, Bai Shen's men, if this behavior was done by locals, I'm afraid they wouldn't have the opportunity to hide their capabilities and bide their time, and they must be outsiders. But despite having such strength, he still tried to keep things as hidden as possible, which showed that he was still in the period of forbearance. He was not afraid of either Bai Shen or the Taoist priests coming to trouble him, but he felt that he was not strong enough to deal with both parties.
Combining these three characteristics, Lu Ning judged that the purpose of this hidden figure was to enhance his own strength. Daring to provoke local snakes shows that he has a certain degree of arrogance and confidence in his own strength. Ms. Du's matter is also part of increasing his strength. The specific method is not yet clear, but one thing is for sure - he must covet the ghosts here in Zaoyuan Manor.
"Don't overeat this time..." Lu Ning touched the scissors in her pocket and thought to herself.
